Helping a Friend

One of my favorite things to do is help others see potential in things. I love showing that you don't have to spend a fortune to make something beautifully your own.

So you can imagine when a good friend called me and asked me to help her with some projects, I was elated. It seems like once you do a piece and realize how easy and transforming it is, it becomes an addiction.

So we set out on the hunt for some end tables and other items to start out.

And guess what?

FREE NINETY FREE.

That is right folks, I saw a sign a day or so later that said free items. So I spun my mini van around and stopped. And there they were...two end tables perfect for our project!

So I took them to her house and she prepped them to be painted.

And of course you know my reaction when she choose black paint....HELLO...

LURVING IT!!!!

A few coats of the black and they were finished.

I left shortly after we painted them. But couldn't wait to see what she did with them!
